Rådhustorget No:1A

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

A Meeting Place at the Heart of Falkenberg

Rådhustorget No:1A sits at the very centre of Falkenberg, on the handsome Town Hall Square that gives the restaurant its name. The room makes an immediate impression: tall windows look out over the square and a generous outdoor terrace to the south, while a teak body panel with 1940s cutwork lines the dining room and a bar of Kolmård marble anchors the space with quiet elegance. It is the kind of place that works equally well for a single well-made drink and a long evening at the table.

Knutur Kristjánsson and a New Direction

The kitchen is now in the hands of head chef Knutur Kristjánsson, who arrived bringing the level of ambition he had previously demonstrated at Kitchen Falkenberg. His first menu for Rådhustorget No:1A — known locally as Råddan — is built around a flexible format: tempting, reasonably priced intermediate dishes that guests mix and match according to the mood of the evening. A few snacks alongside a glass of wine, or a full progression from start to finish — the choice is yours. That openness, combined with serious cooking, is precisely what earned the restaurant recognition at the Fine level in the White Guide 2026.

Thursdays, Theme Evenings and a Lively Programme

The restaurant has built a rhythm of events that keeps regulars returning. Thursday is reserved for new dishes and wine pairings — combinations the team itself wants to explore, drawn from different regions. Themed evenings run regularly through the calendar, and occasional guest appearances bring outside chefs into the kitchen for a la carte menus paired with cocktails and carefully chosen wines. A wine cellar is available for more private gatherings, and high-quality catering extends the kitchen's reach beyond the dining room.

The service matches the setting: a charming, conversational maître d' sets the tone from the moment you arrive, making the experience feel personal rather than formal. White Guide's reviewers singled out exactly this quality — the sense that Rådhustorget No:1A is genuinely for everyone, whether the evening calls for a tranquil aperitif at the marble bar or something considerably more celebratory.
